Welded

I lifted my Volvo four years ago and started a trend. I don't really care about that though. I just wanted a do it all car so I made one.

The rundown:
76mm china turbo because china is fucking great
5.3 LS
LS9 cam
PAC 1218 springs
Water to air intercooler
Exhaust dumps in front of passenger front tire
Ford 8.8 rear end
Pontiac solstice transmission (ar5, r154 cousin)
30x9.5 BFGoodrich Mud Terrains
Parts Shop Max hydraulic handbrake
Driftmotion driveshaft adapter
Novak transmission adapter

Sloppy Mechanics inspired

Mockup before welding. Note the offcenter holes. I'm shitty at giving a fuck.

Mounted

Working

Started with some 1/2" by 1" solid stock.

Trend setter.

It does! It's a little longer and has a lower roofline. The original mud terrains I bought for it had those wheels that are now on it.
